Hydrogen consumption issue in hydrocracked coker wax oil and vacuum wax oil
Thread Content
Coking wax requires more hydrogen for dewaxing, but by how much? Is there any data available regarding the hydrogen consumption associated with coking wax and dewaxing? This post was last edited by chinazwr on 2009-1-29 08:45
The hydrogen consumption for dewaxing paraffin wax is not much higher; it is mainly due to the high sulfur and nitrogen content in paraffin wax.
It also depends on the raw materials; you can refer to the analysis for guidance
Coker wax oil requires more hydrogen consumption than vacuum wax oil, as it contains higher levels of sulfur and nitrogen, which leads to higher hydrogen demand.
